The Cognitive Sciences Laboratory adopts a conservative approach to the
research of anomalous mental phenomena. We make the assumption that all
such phenomena will eventually be understood within the context of
physical science. As a consequence we question dualistic, or mystical,
approaches to these presently anomalous phenomena.

Toward that end, we have adopted an engineering communication metaphor as
a
guide for the design of our investigations. In the language of our
experimental protocol, a target transmits information through space and
time
to a human receiver.
